This course gives you the expert guidance you need in situations where HMRC have already decided to enquire into your client’s tax return. This online course explores the difficult task of co-operating with HMRC while limiting the disruption, anxiety and uncertainty that an enquiry can cause.

You will find useful tips to help you give the best advice in cases where your client tells you that there may be an issue with a previously submitted return. The course will help you to find the best way of resolving the problems with the past while minimising the cost.
